1943, America

SOE's Saffron Courtney is back in New York, but even as she recovers from her mission to Washington, events on the other side of the Atlantic are making her return to England inevitable. The War Office need someone to extract an asset - a Jewish scientist, Caleb Ezra, a man vital to the war effort - from his hideaway on the besieged island of Leros. But first there is a debt to settle, and the mob do not wait - even for a decorated war hero . . .

Back in her beloved homeland, and reunited with her lover-now-husband Gerhard von Meerbach, Saffron thinks that she might finally have found the peace that she craves. The war is over. But when she's paid a visit by an English operative who blackmails her with accusations of Gerhard's involvement in Nazi atrocities, Saffron has no choice but to return to the US at his bidding. With not only her life, but her family at stake, Saffron must track down Ezra once more - before it's too late . . .

not up to Wilbur Smith's usual standard, perhaps because of the co-writer. seems like a substandard way of producing new novels difficult to say why not as good as other novels to sustains to lack the Punch never pulls you in totally.

not up to Wilbur Smith usual standard

The narrator struggled to pronounce his b’s and p’s instead said v and f. This totally distracted from the already weak story. Not one of Wilbur smiths or audibles best

Narration with a speech problem

Something went wrong. Please try again in a few minutes.
Another super story, very well narrated and covering many different countries. Our takented hero as usual did us proud and the excitement was always there. I can't wait for what must be another adventure.

War and Peace?

Something went wrong. Please try again in a few minutes.
Narration not as good as used. Lack of pause between character change made it hard to follow. Unfortunate mistake in London Chapter 2 ,5.20!!

Great story as usual, spoilt by narration
